Featured Reviews

Munisaiteja Narravula - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficient integration of code changes with seamless private repository management
AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly. It doesn't require any complex authentication, which makes the process seamless. Deployments happen in a straightforward manner once the code is organized correctly in the repository. The platform allows the creation of private repositories, securing and restricting access to our team members only. This ensures that unauthorized users cannot access sensitive files. AWS CodeCommit also integrates well when we use it with Check Point allowing us to implement information in the criteria we need.
Dileep DK - PeerSpot reviewer
Facilitates efficient branching and integration with flexible workflow management
Bitbucket Server excels as a versioning system, effectively managing branching and code integration. It provides flexibility, allowing teams to customize workflows according to their specific needs. We maintain a master branch for production and separate branches for different features, which makes it easier to manage code changes. Additionally, its integration with Jenkins pipelines for automating builds and performing various checks enhances its utility.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"The solution scalable."
"The customer service is pretty good."
"The most valuable feature of AWS CodeCommit is that it acts as a code repository with code versioning and approval features similar to those found on GitHub."
"AWS CodeCommit's user interface is nice, and it's easy for people to pick up."
"AWS CodeCommit is much easier to use than Bitbucket. It doesn't require any personal password or these things. We just need to put in our AWS account password and username."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"AWS CodeCommit is simple and cheap."
"The product is easy to maintain."
"Bitbucket Server easily integrates with Jira because they are both Atlassian products."
"Bitbucket Server excels as a versioning system, effectively managing branching and code integration."
"In terms of benefits, I feel that many companies are moving to Bitbucket Server since it can be deployed on an on-premises model at a time when everything is being moved to the cloud."
"It has consistently performed well without major issues, providing a reliable code management and collaboration environment."
"The platform's most valuable features are the code reviews and the ability to add comments to the code."
"Our code is secure."
"Its integration with Jenkins pipelines for automating builds and performing various checks enhances its utility."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in Insight Analytics."
"The tool should improve its UI."
"The solution could be more user-friendly and cheaper."
"Lately, it is turning out to be a little expensive. The market is preferring Azure because it offers resources at a much cheaper price."
"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"There is room for improvement in how AWS CodeCommit handles mass changes, like Fortran, which is designed to make these alterations in a friendly manner across AWS requirements."
"When I compare code, AWS has a cap on the file size, and that size is pretty small compared to what GitHub and GitLab provide."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"The product's initial setup phase is complex."
"We opted for the on-premises solution, and while it's quite expensive, I believe there's room for improvement in terms of pricing."
"It would have been better to use Bitbucket Server if it had something similar to the concept called GitHub Actions since it allows GitHub to provide seamless integration of CI/CD pipelines."
"The user experience is tedious and long-winded. It could also be smoother from an admin's perspective."
"The product interface consists of multiple features that are complicated to navigate for new users."
"The product requires patching and version improvements. Some functions do not work properly when we move from one version to another. We need a technical improvement. Also, communicating with other Atlassian products becomes cumbersome when we move from one version to another. I want Bitbucket Server to include a dashboard similar to Jira's. Atlassian must also develop a tool to scan our complete base for vulnerabilities."
"At the moment, there are not many details on how to proceed with the troubleshooting if one of the users faces an issue with the product."
"The solution's user interface could be improved because it's not very user-friendly or intuitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As for pricing, you can add the table in detail. You can visit Bitbucket or refer to any other tools. There, you can see what is the difference between your pricing and other prices. You have only mentioned it in a single line. Other tools have been mentioned in a table format, like, how many users, premium, normal accounts, and other things."
"The solution is expensive."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"We opted for the on-premises solution, and while it's quite expensive, I believe there's room for improvement in terms of pricing. The licensing is based on the number of users, but I'm not entirely certain about the details."
"There is a cost to use this solution but it is based on how many users are using it. If you have 50 users or 1,000 users the price will be very different."
"One needs to pay towards the licensing charges associated with the product."
"The platform offers a free version for public repositories, which benefits open-source projects."
"The solution comes as a part of the suite."
"As for licensing, Bitbucket is one of the more affordable options."
"Bitbucket Server is quite expensive compared to other products."
"We pay around $6 per user."
